Place from GOONS marriage index.
Mabel and Harry seem to have parted company by 1920. I did think this separation may have occurred earlier, possibly due to the war causing a longer separation than usual, and the general disruption to life, relationships and emotions. However, Harry is recorded as the father of Priscilla, born in 1919. Not that that means he necessarily was her father, of course. It may be significant that when he died a notice appeared in the Faversham News naming children 'Made, Ted, George and Bert'. No mention of Priscilla, although she was still living.

Family 2 Percy O'NEILL, b. Abt 1879, Shoeburyness, Essex, England , d. Dec Q 1963, Bridge Reg Dist, Kent, England (Age ~ 84 years) Married Between 1919 and 1939 - Mabel, was living with a boarder, Percy O'Neill, as well as with two daughters, Janet and Priscilla, at the time of the 1921 census. Less than 6 months earlier Mabel had had an illegitimate daughter Janet; it seems possible that Percy was Janet's father.
Mabel had two more children after Janet, and the second of these had 'O'Neill' as a middle name, strongly suggesting her father, at least, was an 'O'Neill', most likely Percy.
Percy was, like Mabel, married in 1921, but however long their relationship was it seems to have ended by 1939, when they were no longer living in the same house (both were still married, though neither had got back with their spouse).
